It’s been one of my greatest joys in life to have been pastor @ First UMC of Escondido & Rise these past eight years. On this last Sunday, I just want to say, thank you, church. We are because of God’s steadfast love. The Lord bless you and keep you.

Love,
Pastor Ben

Arrive EARLY this Sunday (5/4) to celebrate Todd!!! He has been such a gift and blessing to us in his role as Pastoral Intern these past 4 months. He has served broadly and faithfully our whole community and he will be graduating in just a few short days with his M. Div. from Perkins School of Theology. We are so thankful for his presence and ministry among us. Bring a card or gift if you’d like.
